http://cca.arc.nasa.gov/ NASA research center uses computational and theoretical techniques to study the fundamental nature of life through astrobiology, a combination of biology, astronomy, and other sciences, which is unlocking secrets that will lead to a better understanding of the origins, evolution and distribution of life in the universe. Life is a central theme that unifies NASAs vision and mission. A golden age has begun, an age in which science and technology will benefit enormously from a fundamental understanding of the full potential of living systems. NASA researchers, and their collaborators, are beginning to achieve a better understanding both of our own world, and also of potential habitable worlds and life beyond Earth. This is an agenda for inspiring the next generation of planetary explorers and stewards to sustain the NASA vision and mission.
http://origins.jpl.nasa.gov NASA Origins Program seeks to answer the fundamental questions about the Universe and what conditions made it possible for life to form on earth.
http://astrobiology.arc.nasa.gov Read about NASA astrobiology program, including mission plans, tutorials and lectures with a road map laid out for further explorations.
http://www.mcl.tulane.edu/astrobiology Bringing diverse areas of expertise together to achieve new science and to expand current interactions between Tulane Medical Center and NASA in the field of astrobiology. Astrobiology is the study of life in the universe. One aspect of this includes the effects of space travel upon the human body as well as the use of microgravity to study basic biological phenomena.
http://astrobio.terc.edu Speculates on answers of some of the tough questions asked by Astrobiologists like "Is there life elsewhere in the universe, what is lifes future on Earth and how did life originate on the Earth?". TERC has developed a middle and high school curriculum that stimulates student learning and participation with intriguing questions and illuminating activities. Includes a series of hands-on activities, students explore diverse concepts in chemistry, physics, biology, and Earth and space science.

Geobiology is the use of information preserved in and by the biosphere to attack problems of importance for understanding the geological evolution of the Earth. The interaction of life with the earth works in two directions: life has had an enormous impact on the chemical and physical evolution of this planet, and in turn, global changes in the surface environment of the earth have left their imprint on the genetic and molecular systems which are part of every living thing.
